Tonight was the night. Axe had been psyching himself up for this night for the past few weeks. After almost two years of being together with Anastasia, he was going to ask her to marry him. He felt inside his jacket pocket to make sure that the box that contained the engagement ring was safely tucked away. He looked at himself in the mirror one last time, to make sure that he looked presentable and after a quick comb through his hair, he was good to go.

He made sure to grab the box of her favorite chocolates before he turned on the spot and apparated from his apartment right to her front door. Marcus, gave the door a soft knock and stepped back and waited for her to answer. He hoped that she was ready to go because their booking was for eight and the restaurant was very popular and they wouldn't hold their table for very long.
